m0ut4indo Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Hello! After getting a grasp of how MAME works, I have confirmed I have the right version of MAME that matches my romset (MAME .152, romset .152, CHD .152). I have confirmed Launchbox has the right path to the roms; I noticed that the relative path is shown when I go to manage the Arcade platform. It is now showing the full path. That path check is done AFTER I do the import of the romset. Not sure if that's the issue, but it's something I've done (and maybe worth knowing when asking for help). Launching MAME standalone allows me to execute several games without issue. However, I cannot seem to get one to run when executing it in Launchbox. Every time I double click a game, the mouse cursor gets the spinning circle and quits. I have added the 32 and 64bit to LB and the results are the same. I have noticed this romset has a prompt stating (paraphrasing): "Don't play this unless you own it; type OK to continue, or press left and right on your joystick" I tried to add -skip_disclaimer and -skip_gameinfo but I didn't have any luck with that, either. What am I missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I missing? Remove the keyboard input commandline in the manage emulators screen, it's not compatible with MAME versions that old.

neil9000 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 As for the skipping warnings you need a specific no-nag version of MAME, it cant be disabled in normal MAME versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m0ut4indo Posted July 1, 2020 Author Share Posted July 1, 2020 Thanks - and I was afraid someone was going to say that about not being able to disable notification. I will go back to the drawing board... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
